This action is not sanctioned by B.O.O.B.I.E.(Bodacious Order Of Bingo Inspectors Everywhere), the official regulating agency of B&B Bingo- which I oversee. This is your first warning. Any more infractions, and we'll pull your franchise.Just because I consider you a friend, and couldn't bear the thought of causing you spiritual and emotional anguish, I, by the power vested in me by the mods and the Board of Bingo callers, I do hearby, because of his unbingoly callus disregard of his Official Bingo Card Number, strip Dave of the number 35. In an effort to teach him the error of his ways, he is, thusly, relegated to the much less desirable Card Number One.
Forthwith and heretofore, John shall, again by my powers and such and such, be granted the highly sought after card number 35.
So let it be written, so let it be done.
And the Bingo players rejoiced evermore.
(Besides, I looked at card #35. John DEFINITELY DOES NOT WANT THAT ONE!)
